Sixstringsteve's 2003 Mitsubishi Montero Non-Build Thread

[sixstringsteve]

i threw it up on ksl for sale, and it made me a little sad. I've actually enjoyed this car for the most part.

What made you what to sale it?

I just got 20 mpg on the last tank. Loading a montero with 700 lbs gear and going up parley's isn't the best for gas mileage. This truck is growing on me, but I wish it didn't have little things like a gas gauge that's sorta accurate, a wobbly mirror, and a tcase sensor issue. That being said, it's going to cost $10k more for the 4runner I want, and that can pay for a lot of repairs and gas on the montero.

And here we are one step closer to Steve's fate..... A 2nd gen DC Taco

Is he going to go through a 4-runner again before he decides to do the Taco?

Get a Land Rover and be done. Ha ha

i'm trying to get something more reliable, not less reliable.

All it took was 2 weeks of owning something other than a toyota to realize how much I love my toyotas.

I could see you in a Jeep Commander too. If you don't think they're ugly, that is.

I had a commander. Very nice to sleep in. But the transmission started to die around 80K miles.
I used to build winch bumpers for them.

Look up getlost4x4.

Here is one of many I built. About 4 years ago.

Yep no nudity, just greasy transfer cases.

Nice Commander, What lift is on that? And I've literally spend about 40+ nights sleeping in my commander, love how everything folds flat.
